Hello everybody.

I've just signed up this list, then I must present myselft first.
My name is Paco. I'm a J2EE developer for a local SW copany at Balearic
Islands (Spain - Europe).

I apologize me for my english. I write as well as I can :-)
I've read the etiquette and I've read the FAQ and I've read the mail
archieve, without having found an explanation to my problem.

Here it goes:

I've developed a small "iterate" TagLib. This Tag Lib works fine with WL and
Oracle iAS and I'm currently migrating to jboss + tomcat.

At the end of this e-mail I'will paste some code to explain properly why I
think there's a bug.
I've created a very simple JSP that tests my "IterateTag" and I get a
"NullPointerException" because of the EVAL_BODY_INCLUDE returned by
doStartTag.

I've been looking ".java" generated file from ".jsp" and I can see this
piece of code:

 int _jspx_eval_bit_iterate_0 = _jspx_th_bit_iterate_0.doStartTag();
 if (_jspx_eval_bit_iterate_0 != javax.servlet.jsp.tagext.Tag.SKIP_BODY) {
   String str = null;
   if (_jspx_eval_bit_iterate_0 !=
javax.servlet.jsp.tagext.Tag.EVAL_BODY_INCLUDE) {
     javax.servlet.jsp.tagext.BodyContent _bc = pageContext.pushBody();
     _bc.clear();
     out = _bc;
     _jspx_th_bit_iterate_0.setBodyContent(_bc);
     _jspx_th_bit_iterate_0.doInitBody();
     str = (String) pageContext.findAttribute("str");
   }
   do {
     ...
     if (evalDoAfterBody !=
javax.servlet.jsp.tagext.BodyTag.EVAL_BODY_AGAIN)
       break;
   } while (true);
   if (_jspx_eval_bit_iterate_0 !=
javax.servlet.jsp.tagext.Tag.EVAL_BODY_INCLUDE)
     out = pageContext.popBody();
 }

I can't undestand why this generated ".java" file executes "if !=
EVAL_BODY_INCLUDE" and I think it should be "if == EVAL_BODY_INCLUDE" (May
be I'm wrong).

I've read the following at J2EE 1.3 javadoc about BodyTagSupport class
(http://java.sun.com/j2ee/sdk_1.3/techdocs/api/javax/servlet/jsp/tagext/Tag.
html#EVAL_BODY_INCLUDE):

EVAL_BODY_INCLUDE
public static final int EVAL_BODY_INCLUDE

Evaluate body into existing out stream. Valid return value for doStartTag

I can workarround this by returning EVAL_BODY_BUFFERED (so this isn't a
critical error)

Could anybody explain why is _jspx_eval_bit_iterate_0 being compared to be
not EVAL_BODY_INCLUDE?

Tell me if you need something else.

Thanks in advance for your help.
